Hey guys,
hoping to get some information. We have a camping trip scheduled for mid august. The plan is to take the MY, provided it shows up by then, if not, we will take the 3.
We have a tent site that has a 30amp hook up, for pop up trailers. The plan is to use that 30amp. But I am unsure what kind of plug it is. I called the campground and they had no clue, they just could tell me it has a 30 amp hook up.
In doing some research, it seems it would probably be a TT-30 connection, at first I had assumed it would be some kind of NEMA plug, but I am reading that at campgrounds and for RVs they look that NEMA plugs, but they are wired differently so a TT-30 is needed.
Is that other peoples thoughts as well? That chances are, it's a TT-30 so I need a TT-30 adapter? Tesla doesn't sell them, so I would go third party. EVSE sells them, but they are $60, which seems like a lot for an adapter ( at least it communicates with the car so you don't have to set the AMPs, but my wife doesn't think it's a big deal to just set it ourselves) With a tt-30, i am also seeing they are only 120v, is this true? If so, what kind of charge rate should i see? They also have normal 3 prong connections that would get me 5 mph, is the tt-30 worth it?
Thanks guys!!!
